India's Education Minister Steps Down After Student-Led Protests End

India's Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigned on July 25, 2026. That same day, a student-led group called the Cockroach Janta Party — started after medical school entrance exams were leaked — called off weeks of protests. Tens of thousands had marched in New Delhi. Reuters says youth leaders still plan to talk with the government, so their influence may continue.
